Inward Light
Contemplative, reflection, and deliberate, this original composition is in memory of a teenager. The poignant melody first appears in the lower register with the soulfullness of a cello. Later, the mood grows stronger and the melody in the upper voice is supported by almost light-hearted accompaniment beneath. The final section is one of celebration in spite of loss. Part of the "Resounding Faith Series," Inward Light is set in g minor and is 79 measures.
